Stutter FPS Boost FIX DXVK

🎮 **One sentence summary**: Put in these two magical DLL files to make your game run silky smooth!

---

✨ Module effect

Simply put, this module uses **DXVK** technology to convert the game's original DirectX calls into a more efficient Vulkan API, thereby significantly improving the running smoothness of "Assassin's Creed: Odyssey" and effectively solving the lag problem.

Uploader `nexuskid420` shared his personal experience: while trying to use mods for Assassin's Creed: Origins, he placed `dxgi.dll` and `d3d11.dll` into the game folder of Odyssey out of curiosity. The results are amazing - **all lag is gone and the game runs smoother than ever! ** It is because of this huge improvement that he decided to share this discovery with all players.

📦 Installation Guide

The installation process is super simple:

  • Download and unzip the file.
  • Find the folder named **`x64`**.
  • Extract the two files **`dxgi.dll`** and **`d3d11.dll`**.
  • Place them into your Assassin's Creed: Odyssey **game home directory** (which is the folder where the `ACOdyssey.exe` executable is located).

**Example path**:

`C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Assassins Creed Odyssey`

Done! Now you can launch the game and enjoy a smooth experience! 🚀

🔧 Technical background

  • **DXVK** is a Vulkan-based transformation layer created by developer **Doitsujin**.
  • Its full name is **DirectX to Vulkan**, which is a software library responsible for converting Direct3D 9/10/11 calls into Vulkan API calls.
  • It was originally mainly used to improve the compatibility and performance of Windows games on Linux systems (via Wine or Steam Proton).
  • DXVK improves game performance by leveraging Vulkan's modern, low-overhead graphics capabilities, delivering significant optimizations even on Windows systems.

ℹ️ About file sources

The core files of this module (`dxgi.dll` and `d3d11.dll`) come from the official DXVK project of **Doitsujin**.

  • **Official GitHub release page**:

The uploader `nexuskid420` is not the original author of these files. He just discovered this effective configuration solution for "Odyssey" and shared it, hoping to help more players who are troubled by lag.

I hope this small adjustment will make your trip to ancient Greece more enjoyable! Enjoy! ⚔️🏺

Install & use Install: follow the bundled instructions

  1. Unzip the archive from playbuff and read the bundled readme / instructions first.
  2. There is no universal mod manager for this game: some mods replace game files directly, some go into a game-specific Mods folder, and some need a game-specific community loader or tool first — follow the bundled readme.
  3. Place the files exactly as the readme says; mods with listed dependencies need those installed too.
  4. Launch the game to confirm it loaded; some games require enabling mods in settings or an in-game mod menu.

Install locations vary a lot between games and mods — the bundled readme is the most reliable guide.
